Author and historian Jan Cleere at March League meeting

"I write about the people, legends, and tales of the old west that I have uncovered among tattered documents, tear-stained journals and diaries, and the accounts told by old-timers. I hope my historic biographies will entertain, amuse, and astound you just as they did me when I uncovered these
remarkable histories." Jan entertained us with amazing stories of early Arizona as told through the eyes of amazing women pioneers at our March meeting. She is a wonderful story teller and writer. Dee Steen presents Jan with a copy of Tastes & Treasures cookbook as a thank you gift.

At the League’s regular monthly membership meeting, Jan Cleere will provide an inspiring reflection on the history of Arizona told through the lives of strong, innovative, independent women from her book: LEVI’S and LACE. The book celebrates some of the amazing stories of over thirty heroic women who were known for their fortitude in the face of adversity, their confrontation of extraordinary and sometimes dangerous situations, their adventuresome spirit, and their dedication to improving the lives of others. Jan writes about the people, legends and tales of the Old West that she has uncovered among tattered documents, tear-stained journals and diaries, and the accounts told by old-timers.
